In response to the research literature on the coordinated evaluation of water resource utilization and economic development in the core database of WOS (Web of Science) from 1994 to 2020, Cite space6.1.R6 visualization software was used to systematically analyze the literature characteristics, deeply explore the research hotspots and evolution context of the field, and explore the core research themes and future development trends of the field. Research has shown that, from the perspective of publication time and distribution, the number of publications in this field shows a fluctuating upward trend, going through three stages: initiation, growth, and surge. The trend of changes in publication volume is closely related to water conservancy policies; From the perspective of institutional cooperation distribution, research institutions as a whole exhibit a phenomenon of "large dispersion and small aggregation"; From the perspective of scholar cooperation characteristics, scholars in the field generally exhibit a phenomenon of close cooperation; From the perspective of keyword co-occurrence network graph, "sustainability", "model", "system", "coordination", "water policy", "climate change", "water resource management", "ecosystem service" and other hot words in this field have become popular in the past decade; From the perspective of the keyword timeline graph, the application of the society-economy-water resources-ecology coupling coordination model in the study of regional spatiotemporal evolution has become an emerging hot topic in this academic field.
